Roving reporter, serial masticator, and sometimes Fork in the Road contributor Joe DiStefano knows a thing or two about eating his way through Queens, so we can’t think of a more fitting author for World’s Fare, the blog he’s just launched in collaboration Edible Queens.

The blog, DiStefano promises, “will guide you through the borough, inviting you to savor its most delicious finds. Together, we’ll explore the taco trucks, bistros, fine-dining white-tablecloth hot spots, down-and-dirty watering holes and hottest hotspots. We’ll meet Palestinian pastry specialists in Astoria, Indian grandmothers griddling paratha in Jackson Heights and Ridgewood butchers. We’ll also explore local shops, from the gigantic Korean supermarkets in Murray Hill to emporia in Woodside catering to Irish expats.”
